Wow! The packaging looks so beautiful, esp. the blush brush. Do you have any idea about the quality of Jill Stuart blush brushes? I hope they'll release both collections in HK as well so I can buy one or both when I go back there.

I buy my Jill Stuart makeup through a friend who lives in Japan or on my own holidays in Tokyo. It's actually very easy to order Jill Stuart online from Gooddealer.com, Adambeauty.com, Ichibankao.com, Bobodave.com. This blog has also gotten good reviews: http://bringblingjp.blogspot.com/

Ichibankao and Bobodave have very high markups so do check out the other sites first.

The brushes for the Mix Compact Blush are a bit stiff, and don't feel very silky but they still do a good job of application. Jill Stuart does not have its own line of brushes yet. The brush in the holiday coffret looks like it's not made from the same material as the Mix Compact Blush brushes (which have white bristles) so can't really tell what the texture is like without seeing it in person. Shouldn't be too bad, I think, given the quality of Jill Stuart.
